Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie threw some shade at former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley over remarks she made about whether or not she would run for president in 2024.
Last month, Haley was asked if she would support former President Trump if he threw his hat in the ring, which she said "yes," but also made clear that she would not launch a GOP primary bid against him.
"I would not run if President Trump ran and I would talk to him about it," Haley told the Associated Press. "That’s something that we will have a conversation about at some point, if that decision is something that has to be made. But yeah, I would, absolutely."
She went on to praise the "working relationship" she had with Trump while serving as UN ambassador.
However, during his appearance on Tuesday's installment of the "Ruthless" podcast, Christie took an indirect jab at Haley when asked about his own 2024 prospects.
"After 2022 is over, we'll make a decision about whether we're going to run or not, but I certainly won't preclude it and I'm also not going to be one of these people who's gonna say, ‘Well, I’ll wait to see what President Trump is gonna do,'" Christie said. "I'm not going to defer to anyone. If I decide that it's what I want to do and I think I'm the best option for the Republican Party and for the country."
He continued, If you're saying you're deferring to someone, that's a real sign of both weakness and indecision and we've already got that in the White House."

Where could this loser get elected from? He is radioactive in his own home state, destroying the GOP there. He isn’t conservative enough to get elected in most red states. He’s not a Mormon and can’t got to Utah and get elected.
Chrissy is just mad because he got no where when he wanted to run.
I'm sure that Nikki Haley would appreciate that on a hot day.
Have another donut
Trump kicked Christie’s butt in that primary. And everyone else except Cruz.
Don’t think he has the money or donor list to compete against anyone, much less Trump Redux. His ego is bigger than his body.

Nikki is only being realistic.
DJT is a beloved figure among most Republican voters.
Nikki could walk past me on the street and I would not recognize her.
I have a positive impression of her.
I attended one of his “town halls”. Handpicked audience and they play his half hour promotional video before he comes out. The SAME video he then played before his Republican Convention speech. He’s a tiresome self promoter.
The only thing Christie sweeps is the buffet table.
Haley shows she is a smarter politician than Fat Boy.
(she is still an ineligible Bush League Republican history eraser)
Someone who cares about Chris should tell him the truth. Hell never be President.
I was an early Trump supporter in 2016, and enthusiastically campaigned for him in 2016 and 2020, if he picks Haley, I am staying home.
Fixed
This fatass is going to be a real pain. I don’t like him or Nikki.
Keep talking.
The public needs to see more of who you really are.
A big fat repulsive dim rat.
Rest assured he wont pick Haley. After seeing what Mike Pence did to him he won't ever pick one of them. Whoever he picks will be a true believer and a fighter.
Funny. What was the context?
